The Leaky Gut Syndrome
The intestinal mucosa is a barrier between the intestinal contents and the blood circulation. When the barrier is intact, the intestinal mucosa allows only water and the necessary nutrients to pass into the bloodstream. In the leaky gut syndrome, the intestinal mucosa becomes permeable – harmful substances pass unhindered into the bloodstream. The immune system reacts with inflammatory and allergic processes. Our Leaky Gut Complete Test gives you information about the condition of your intestinal mucosa as an impermeable gut is necessary for your general health and well-being.
